Create React App Officially Deprecated Amid React 19 Compatibility Issues
Create React App is officially deprecated due to React 19 issues and lack of maintenance—developers should switch to Vite or other modern alternatives.
core-object
Advanced tools
The core-object npm package provides a base class for creating objects with properties and methods, supporting inheritance and mixins. It is commonly used in JavaScript applications to create structured, reusable components.
Creating a Basic Class
This feature allows you to create a basic class with properties and methods. The `extend` method is used to define a new class, and the `create` method is used to instantiate an object of that class.
const CoreObject = require('core-object');
const Person = CoreObject.extend({
init(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
},
introduce() {
return `Hi, I'm ${this.name} and I'm ${this.age} years old.`;
}
});
const john = Person.create('John', 30);
console.log(john.introduce()); // Hi, I'm John and I'm 30 years old.
Inheritance
This feature demonstrates inheritance, where a new class can extend an existing class, inheriting its properties and methods. The `Dog` class extends the `Animal` class and overrides the `speak` method.
const CoreObject = require('core-object');
const Animal = CoreObject.extend({
init(name) {
this.name = name;
},
speak() {
return `${this.name} makes a noise.`;
}
});
const Dog = Animal.extend({
speak() {
return `${this.name} barks.`;
}
});
const dog = Dog.create('Rex');
console.log(dog.speak()); // Rex barks.
Mixins
This feature shows how to use mixins to add additional functionality to a class. The `CanFly` mixin is added to the `Bird` class, providing the `fly` method.
const CoreObject = require('core-object');
const CanFly = {
fly() {
return `${this.name} is flying.`;
}
};
const Bird = CoreObject.extend(CanFly, {
init(name) {
this.name = name;
}
});
const eagle = Bird.create('Eagle');
console.log(eagle.fly()); // Eagle is flying.
Backbone.js provides the minimal structure needed for web applications by providing models with key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, and connects it all to your existing API over a RESTful JSON interface. Compared to core-object, Backbone.js offers a more comprehensive framework for building web applications.
Ember.js is an opinionated framework for building ambitious web applications. It includes everything you need to build rich UIs that work on any device. Ember.js uses core-object internally for its object model, but it provides a much larger set of features and conventions for building applications compared to core-object.
Lodash is a modern JavaScript utility library delivering modularity, performance, and extras. While it is not directly comparable to core-object in terms of object-oriented programming, Lodash provides a wide range of utility functions for common programming tasks, which can complement the use of core-object in a project.
